Bugzilla – Bug 143290
connect2air 5400 D1700 crashes
Last modified: 2006-01-18 15:19:23 UTC
I have Suse 10.0 32bit running on an Athlon 64. My wlan adapter is a fujitsu siemens connect2air 5400 d1700. I have the adapter running with ndiswrapper and the latest 32bit windows xp drivers. The adapter crashes very often. Sometimes after five minutes, sometimes after an hour. When that happens I cannot even ping my router. After a reboot the adapter doesn't work at all. I have to reboot a second time. There are no crashes with XP. But after a crash with 10.0 it doesn't work with XP either until I reboot a second time. I will add dmesg and hwinfo.
Created attachment 63359 [details] dmesg output
Created attachment 63360 [details] hwinfo output
Well, running closed source Windows drivers inside your linux kernel may cause strange things. You can try another version of the Windows driver, of ndiswrapper, or both.
